Free To Play 

A deceiving concept invented by gaming companies to trick people into spending copious amounts of money on binary digits that have no practical applications in the real world.

Of course free to play games are free to download, and free to play, however if you want to make any sort of progress in said game, or be on a comparable level to other players in said game, you need to spend real world money in the fantasy world game to have any sort of fun.

Oftentimes consumers spend more money on free to play games than the MSRP price of many retail games.

You know that the title is deceiving when Electronic Arts, a bunch of money grubbing whores, says that Free To Play games are the future of the industry.
Nerd 1: “Man, I cannot keep up with anyone else. I tried to loot that chest but some guy keeps hiding around the corner and killing me with one swing.”

Nerd 2: “Dude, just spend $5 on that one spell and teach him a lesson.”

Nerd 1: “Good idea, I mean, I only make minimum wage, but 45 minutes of working at my sucky job is totally worth the satisfaction that killing this guy is gonna bring in this virtual reality. Wait I thought you said it was 5 bucks? It’s 10 bucks!”

Video Game Industry: “I love Free to Play. Who would’ve thought ‘Free’ could be so profitable!?”

To play us out 

A term discovered by Bill O'Reilly towards the end of an unaired Inside Edition taping. At the time, Bill was an anchor for Inside Edition from 1989 to 1993 so the meltdown occurred in the middle of his tenure and days after the release of Sting's The Soul Cages. Used to describe a musical accompaniment for a stage exit.
Bill: "I don't know what that means; "To play us out." What does that mean? ...To end the show?
Producer: "Yeah. Yeah."
Bill: "Alright. Go. Go!"
Producer: "In 5, 4, 3..."

Time to play the game 

This is when nothing else matters only the game at hand. One must block out everything else and focus on the game. A true athlete can do this to elevate his play,and crush his weaker opponent. This idea was also what born the song by motorhead "Time to play the game".
Hockey playoffs start today so, it's "Time to play the game".

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
